AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MELBOURNE FL 245 PM EDT SAT APR 22 2006 .DISCUSSION... SUN-TUE... DEEP LYR NWRLY FLOW OVER THE LWR MS VALLEY WILL PUSH THE COLD FRONT INTO THE S FL PENINSULA ON SUN WHERE IT WILL STALL AND WASH OUT. MOST OF THE STORM ACTIVITY WILL PUSH INTO THE SRN PENINSULA AHEAD OF THE FRONT. HOWEVER...A WEAK SFC PGRAD DUE TO THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE FRONTAL TROF WILL ALLOW THE SEABREEZE TO FORM S OF THE CAPE. THE SEABREEZE WOULD WORK ON ANY RESIDUAL MOISTURE THAT MAY POOL WITHIN THE TROF...TRIGGERING A FEW TSRAS OVER THE SRN CWA SUN AFTN. MINIMAL CHANCES...HOWEVER...AS MOST OF THE MOISTURE WILL HAVE BEEN PUSHED INTO THE SRN PENINSULA BY THEN. MINIMAL TEMP CHANGE AS THE AIR MASS AS SFC DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S/L70S STATEWIDE INDICATE THE AIRMASS NEAR THE SFC HAS ALREADY UNDERGONE SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATION...READING TO CONTINUE AOA CLIMO INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
